Last call for indoor brews

After last week’s spring tease and gorgeous weather, it appears that the rain is back and has plans to stay awhile. What better reason to gather some friends and kick back on the couch with a few of our new arrivals:

Rogue Double Dead Guy, $12.89
This strong ale won a Silver award at the 2008 World Beer Championships. It is a deep amber color that has peanut brittle and orange blossom on the nose, with a rich, fruity body and roasted grains and spice on the palate. Pair with pork or hot and spicy food. Look for it in the bright red painted bottle.

Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout, $10.99
Infused with espresso, this beer combines the vanilla characteristics from the oak with the strong roasted malts and bold hop flavors. Great Divide’s Web site suggests you drink it with breakfast burritos or eggs benedict, but we’ll let you decide if you want beer for breakfast. 9.5% ABV

Wandering Aengus Wanderlust Cider, $7.19
This semi-dry cider is styled after the fine ciders of Somerset, England. With a rich body and long, ginger finish, this cider shows notes of dried fruit, ripe pear, citrus and green apple. A great pairing with fish, poultry, pork, barbeque, or by itself on the porch (if it ever stops raining).

Sierra Nevada’s 30th Anniversary Fritz & Ken’s Ale, $9.99
The first in the series of 30th Anniversary beers, Fritz Maytag, owner of Anchor Steam Brewing Company, agreed to be the guest brewer for this project. A rich and roasted ale, this stout is perfect for aging or enjoyed right now in a snifter. 9.5% ABV
